What you’re looking at
This page contains satirical content about early 20th-century American politics and social customs, alongside period advertisements. **The main cartoon "The New Order of Things"** depicts a political candidate praising a supposedly genteel campaign—no torchlight parades, no vote-buying, no press attacks, no kissing babies for votes. The satire is clear: the candidate is *lying*. He's praising the absence of exactly those corrupt, vulgar practices that actually dominated American campaigns of this era. The joke mocks candidates who claimed to run "clean" campaigns while engaging in the very abuses they denounced. **"Hard on 'Alton B.'"** references Alton B. Parker, the 1904 Democratic presidential nominee. The cartoon mocks him by showing a woman confusing her husband "Moike Reilly" with Parker, suggesting Parker was forgettable or indistinct—a jab at his candidacy. The remaining content is primarily **period advertising** for products (garters, water, cigars, magazines) typical of the era, including dubious medical claims for "Buffalo Lithia Water" endorsed by university physicians.

(A candidate speak) I like these quiet, calm campaigns Without torchlight processions, Without discordant martial strains Or muscular digressions ; I like the freedom from the hot Old bickering and lying, The lack of votes that may be bought, The scorn men have of buying. Llike the freedom from abuse With which the papers treat me; Fevw idle tales are put to use In efforts to defeat me. With gladness in my heart I know, When I begin my speeches That I shall have a decent show Against old eggs and screeches. I like the lack of bitterness, Tlike the quiet thinking ; 1 like the fairness of the press, The lack of bets and drinking ; And one thing more, I'll here avow, ‘That makes me very glad is We seldom kiss soiled babies now To captivate their daddies. —Chicago Record-Herald, The man who puts a penny in the col- lection-plate always expects a dollar ser- jmon.— Philadelphia Telegraph.
